APPEAL TO The PUBLIc.

\
In recent issue II was stated that Mr.
Smith, the boss baker who has been q
source of trouble with the Bakers Union
had agreed To work in harmony with the
Union. Mr. Smith had a man in his en-
ploy who refused TO join the Union, and
Mr.. s., at private conference with officers
OF the Union agreed that his man should
jOia the Union or in case he refused, if the
Union would furnish him q good man, he
would discharge him. The man himself
agreed to Join, but objected TO joining on
Sunday. So TO accommodate him a special
be promised to be present. The members
of the Union were on hand and waited
patiently for his coming, but on his
failure to show up finally resolved
to have nothing more TO do with
him. In pursuance OF this action they sent
TO Chicago and got a competent man for
Mr.. Smith, paying bis expenses out of the
MONS funds. Mr. Smith now refuses TO
abide by his agreement. and the alternative
lett for the Mon Is 10 strengthen the boy
colt. The Bakers Union is deserving of
the support OF every laooring man and all
friends OF labor IN the city. They have
acted the gentleman in this trouble and
now to allow the Bakers Union to be
broken up oy this one man shouldn't be
thought OF for a moment. IL Is now the
duty OF every Trades Union and X. of l..
Assembly to instruct their members TO re-
fuse TO ouy Smiths bread and to refuse to
trade at . grocery store that sells his bre ad
All dealers handling Union made bread
will have diamond shaped card hung up
in their store.

new INVENTION IN AMERICAN NAVAL
VESSELS.

Washington, April 23.-For some
time past the Engineering Bureau
of the Navy Department has been
experimenting with q new method
of applying the forced draft to the
furnaces of marine engines, and the
results obtained are said to be highly
satisfactory. In the English system,
which has been in use for many
years, the prime requisite is an air.
tight fire-room into which air is
forced by compressors and finds its
way through the furnaces. TO this
system there are many objections.
1t has been found practically i'm
possible to maintain the air-tight
fire-room, as repairs to boilers and
warpage soon cause heavy leaks,
and when the fires become foul the
forced draft is almost useless while
they are being cleaned. The device,
which is now being applied by the
Engineering Bureau, is the inven-
ton of Passed Assistant Engineer.
1t contemplates the forcing of air
through ducts directly into the ash
pits of the furnaces. Gas leaks in
the furnace doors, which have here
tofore been so serious an objection
as to prevent the adoption of the
system, are remedied by making the
doors hollow and keeping them filled
with compressed air. Besides the
advantage of an ordinary open fire.
room the new system, by circulating
the incoming air through the fire.
room, results in considerable re-
duction of the temperature. This
device has been applied to the Alli-
ance and the Swatara, with the re-
suit that the vessels have been en-
abled to dispense with four of their
boilers and carry n corresponding
weight of coal in. addition to their
usual supply. The designs of the
new G,000-ton ships now being pre-
pared by the department also en-
body the principle Bos. journal.

A MISSION TO SAMOA.

The native papers announce that
Rev. ID. Keaweamahi is TO be sent
by the Government on the Zealandia
as missionary to Samoa. 1t will
be remembered that Rev. ID. Kea-
weamahi was formerly the pastor of
the native Evangelical church at
Wailuku, but resigned when that
fatal malady-leprosy-made it i'm
possible for him any longer to con-
tinue in that position. Under what
appropriation is the Government
sending foreign missionaries to the
South Pacific? As matter of
courtesy the English societies con-
fine their work TO the islands south
of the equator. Why should the
Hawaiian Government violate the
tacit agreement, that there shall be
no interference with their work in
that field!

Why should these savages be per-
mitted TO fence, plow, and build all
over the islands? They have gone
on to the waste places, and made
them green with sugar cane; and
whenever they find strangers stroll
ing around their plantations, they
capture them, take them into their
Notifications, till their stomachs with
good grub, pour hot coffee down
their throats, put them in soft beds
to sleep, and otherwise maltreat
them. Occasionally they make
sortes upon the towns and villages,
even upon the city of Honolulu.
They worry the grocers, drapers,
and business folks generally, so that
the people only escape from their
cruel tormentors with their pockets
burdened with cash. They have
the audacity to fire balls of bank
bills and wads of twenty-dollar gold
pieces into the Government money
chest. Therefore, the Government
seeks to exterminate them root and
branch. Free grog and opium will
| do their share of the destruction,
and the roads and wharves money
stuffed into the gating guns of the
Kaimioa will accomplish the rest.
Having got happily rid of these
| go-a-head, money-loving, hard-work-
ing, prosperity-creating drawbacks
to the peace and comfort of the
country, there will remain no him
drance to the placing of battery
of eighty-one ton guns on Diamond
Head, missions to all the nations of
the globe, and q jubilee procession

tial proofs of u tlourishing, we'll

SUGAR Is SUPREME.

Since the day that the whaling
fleet deserted the port of Honolulu,
the Hawaiian Islands have depended
for their prosperity almost entirely
upon sugar. All other sources of
income and wealth together, are
mere triflc compared with sugar.
Laborers, mechanics, professional
men, shop keepers, and merchants
are dependent, directly or in
directly, upon sugar. Failure of
this staple means stagnation of busi-
ness, lack of employment, and posi-
tive poverty.
The planter is the most important
man in the country and to the coun-
try. Without him, the people who
make their bread by the sweat of
their brow, and those who measure
calico over the counter or sell pork
and beans for a living, as well as
editors, reporters, and compositors,
would be compelled to betake them
selves to a primitive method of life,
in which broadclOth and dainty
dishes are wanting, or direct their
course to some more busy scene.
The Government would languish for
means to make itself ridiculous, the
army would melt into their lines,
and the navy would rot at the fish
market from inability to raise the
wind to get out. to sea. Ministers
would find scant pickings, and
Members of Parliament would lack
the steam to blow off in advocacy or
defense of shady schemes.
To be sure, the ruin of the plant
ers and the stoppage Of the sugar
mills, would not necessarily mean
complete and final ruin to the coun-
try. Other industries might be
started, and other exportable pro-
ducts ultimately take the place of
sugar. But their development would
require time, and in the meanwhile
stagnation and starvation would
reign supreme.
Considering the position of the
planter and his indispensability to
the country, the Government should
be careful not to place on him un'
necessary burdens, or cramp his
energies and impede his progress by
injurious legislation. A wise gov
ernment would never kill the duck
which lays the golden egg.
Yet it is a fact, that the attitude
of the Executive and the course of
legislation for several years past,
I have been decidedly hostile to plant
ing interests. The legislation, under
Government control, which made
liquor free and legalized the use OF
opium, to demoralize the planter
labor, is about the worst form ol
hostility possible.
The planter has been treated as
an enemy, that should be conquered
and expelled from the country.

Special Agent, Thomas Hick-
man, has made a report to the
Secretary of the Interior of dep
rotations on government timber
which has resulted in the arrest Of
several parties in Calcasieu parish.
We understand he has had reports
of depredations committed in the
interior of Grant parish, and a
deputy is out now trying to get at
the facts It is no joke to get into
q tiff with Uncle Sam about timber,
and we would warn those of our
citizens who seem to think it would
be matter of fun not to give it a
trial Our young friend j. w.
Rhorer, ycleped 'Texas jack" is
now on the trail for depredators.
He is as clever and sociable q lad
as is to be found in all these parts,
but with it all keeps his weather
eye open for business, and if there

We have received this week
copies of the Star and Crescent
and the Waco Advance, both news
papers published at Waco, Texas,
and both engaged heart and soul
in the war against whisky traffic.
Prohibition has proved a great
success here in Grant parish, and
been of evident substantial benefit
to our people. and after two years
trial there are very few if any of
our citizens but would hate to see
public tippling again introduced
into our midst The quiet and
order enjoyed by this parish is
something to be desired, and we
sincerely hope our Texas friends
